Know before you buy
The Tulip Chair features a traditional 8-way hand-tied support system, which provides a firm, structured sit rather than a plush, sink-in feel. This construction is designed for longevity and maintains a clean, tailored silhouette over time.
Yes, hemp is a remarkably strong, naturally resilient fiber that holds up well to regular wear. Because it is a natural material, it will develop a soft, lived-in character over time while remaining structurally sound.
The casters are primarily decorative and provide a classic 19th-century aesthetic. While they allow for slight adjustments in position, the chair is designed to remain stable and stationary during normal use.
The interior seating space measures 20 inches wide by 20 inches deep, with a seat height of 17 inches. It is a compact, upright accent chair, making it ideal for reading nooks or smaller living spaces.
Yes, the frame is constructed from FSC-certified alder hardwood. Cisco Home prioritizes eco-friendly practices, ensuring the wood is sourced responsibly and the overall construction supports a healthier home environment.
